As the corpses on the grass were cleared, the smell of murder in the air became stronger and stronger.

Tianyuan's prisoners of war were wild and untamable. After they recovered, they tried to escape several times, and only after a group of them were killed did they calm down.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Chengjun asked Xie Linlang if he wanted to kill all the prisoners of war in front of the enemy to scare the enemy.

Xie Linlang thought for a while, but said no.

The Tianyuan Army is warlike and fearless by nature. If Da Qin had done this before the war, it might have aroused their bloody nature and made them think of a last-ditch fight when they were at a disadvantage. In this case, the risk would be too great.

When Xiao Chengjun heard this, he nodded and obeyed. He now listened to Xie Linlang's words.

In fact, when the emperor left an imperial edict and appointed Xie Linlang as the general, he felt a little unfair. After all, Xie Linlang had only fought in the battle of Xiangcheng waters, and he became famous in one battle.

Whether she can handle a land battle, no one knows.

In addition, she is too young. Behind their front, beyond Beidi and Yunzhou, is the capital! Their families and relatives are all there. How can such an important battle line be easily handed over to a young man?

Not only him, but others also had such concerns. Fortunately, Xie Linlang won a big victory as soon as he came, which gave everyone reassurance and won everyone's belief.

Everyone now believes that with Xie Linlang here, this battle will be won!

Xie Linlang used the telescope brought from the capital to look into the distance.

It's been a day, and Tianyuan hasn't moved.

Every day before, they would attack the city. If they didn't attack today, could it be because there were too many casualties yesterday?

No, most of those who entered the city wall yesterday were either killed in battle or captured. Those who were able to escape were all uninjured. As for the people outside, they were even unscathed. It was impossible for them to be unable to fight due to casualties.

Moreover, Tianyuan's money and food are tight, so they shouldn't delay... Or are they waiting for reinforcements, or do they have other trump cards?

Reinforcements can be ruled out for the time being.

Tianyuan's main battle army only has 120,000 people. Don't underestimate these 120,000 people. They are all brave and good at fighting, and they rarely suffer defeat along the way.

There are already 100,000 people rushing to the battlefield, and the opponent will only have 20,000 reinforcements to survive. The current 20,000 reinforcements are not enough to regain the disadvantage.

That means there are other trump cards...

Xie Linlang frowned and observed for another day.

As a result, there was no movement from Tianyuan's side the next day. The scouts sent out said that they were camping on the spot to recuperate and had no plans to attack. It seemed that there would be no attack tomorrow.

The other generals were a little anxious when facing this situation, because if the opponent did not come over, it would be difficult for them to open the city gate and attack.

The reason why this is not possible is because of several considerations.

First, the enemy grew up on horseback. The Qin army was still lacking in this aspect. If they fought with them on the grass without cover, even if their number was more than twice theirs, they might not be able to win.

Second, the enemy may be doing this to show weakness deliberately and set a trap to lure the enemy deeper.

Once they abandon the city wall, they may play into the enemy's hands.

In the main account, several lieutenants were quarreling over this matter. Most of them still relied more on the city wall, while a small number of people strongly demanded the main battle!

The reason for the main battle was also very good, and they won the battle. It was a time when morale was high. Why not take advantage of this opportunity to work hard?

If they just take the initiative to attack, the effectiveness of the secret weapons brought by Xie Linlang will be minimized, because there is neither a high wall as a base point nor an obstruction to set up an ambush for them.

Xie Linlang sat in the main seat and listened to all their conversations while thinking.

Seeing that they were arguing at the end, Xie Linlang stretched out her slender white fingers and knocked on the table. Immediately, everyone quieted down. They stared and held back half of what they said, and everyone looked at her. .

At this time, Xie Linlang was still not wearing armor. Compared with the burly figures of everyone present, she looked too thin, more like a strategist than a general.

But for such a frail person, there is a powerful aura around her that cannot be ignored. She looks gentle and steady as a mountain. Even if she doesn't speak, she gives people the feeling of being confident.

Seeing that they were honest, Xie Linlang expressed his conclusion.

"You don't have to argue anymore. Late tonight, we will take the initiative to start a war."

Her words made everyone stunned. A war at night? Although they have the advantage of a night attack, the Tianyuan Army is highly vigilant and will not let down their guard at night. There are restrictions on fighting at night, right?

asked a bearded general.

"Lord General, I am not questioning your decision, but the people of that day have better eyesight than ours at night. If we attack at night, will we suffer the loss of our eyesight?"

Another lieutenant general also said, "Yes! What if the couple deliberately shows weakness and sets a trap waiting for us?"

Their considerations were reasonable, and Xie Linlang nodded.

"What you all said makes sense, but I don't think the other party has set a trap for us to fall into the trap, because they can't afford it, don't have the time, and don't have so much food in reserve."

Tianyuan has always relied on war to support war, and winter has just passed, which is a time when food is scarce for the grassland.

At this time, if they delay for even one day, it will cause great hidden dangers, and if Xie Linlang is very cautious, won't they have to wait for several months?

"So I thought they were not waiting for us to go over, but were waiting for other deployments."

"...That thing must be very powerful, at least it can restrain the weapons I brought. If not, they should have surrendered after seeing the power of our weapons last time.

Because they can't afford it and can't defeat it, what else can they do if they don't surrender and go back to govern the country that was finally unified?

But they didn't surrender and chose to fight with us, which shows that he has a way to win surely!

We cannot let them wait for that opportunity. "

Xie Linlang's words made everyone feel shocked. They didn't even think of this!

Yes, the enemy doesn't know the storage capacity of their weapons. Without knowing it, and having seen the power of Da Qin's weapons at close range, they should surrender!

After all, Tianyuan's national conditions are different from other countries. It is a newly unified country. If you are not careful, it will fall apart again. It is impossible for the current people in power in Tianyuan not to know this.

Knowing that they still continue to fight against Da Qin despite the danger of the country being torn apart, is it possible that they really have weapons that are more powerful than Da Qin's weapons? !

At this thought, everyone's expressions became solemn, and they all guessed what the weapon was.
